October Question

[ljm1971]

Hey guys! Does anyone know when they start the Halloween festivities at the park in October? We're going to be in Disneyland October 12th through the 19th.

Thanks in advance for your answer....

I believe the decorations and stuff start to go up the end of September. Last year I went to the Mickey's Halloween Treat the first weekend in October and everything was pretty much in place by then. So by the time you will be there everything will certainly be set up!

They should go up the week of Sept 15th. I will be there 18-19 and the 19th should officially kick it off. The first year it was the last 3 days of Sept but last year they moved it up a week.

KEWL!!!!

Thanks so much for the replies. Will there be alot of people going to the parks in costumes every day? We're going to be there for seven days. Not sure if I want to wear a costume the whole time I'm there....

I think only kids can wear costumes during regular park hours. I think the only time adults can wear costumes is during the actual halloween festivities at DCA (which has a name that I can't rememberr at the moment).

no


IIRC Adults aren't even supposed to be in Costumes unless you are heading for one of the Halloween parties....


even then .. there aren't many kids in costumes...

In Disneyland costumes can only be worn by children I believe, but I forget the age cutoff. Adults are not allowed to wear costumes in Disneyland. The only time adults can wear costumes is if they are attending the Mickey's Halloween Treat in DCA, which is a separate ticket.

When I went to Mickey's Halloween Treat, there were many adults as well as kids in costumes. And there were some really cool costumes also!

Costumes are allowed for children 5 and under I believe. The only exception is if you attend Mickey's Halloween Treat in DCA (we were there the first week end of Oct last year as well!) then the entire family is encouraged to be in costume.

Other than that, no costumes allowed unless you're a little tyke.

It was our first time last year and we had a great time. It is well worth the "extra ticket" IMO.

The cutoff for child in costume is age 9.
